Revisiting Chain-of-Thought Prompting: Zero-shot Can Be Stronger than Few-shot

EMNLP 2025

In-Context Learning (ICL) is an essential emergent ability of Large Language Models (LLMs), and recent studies introduce CoT to exemplars of ICL to enhance the reasoning capability, especially in mathematics tasks. However, given the continuous advancement of model capabilities, it remains unclear w

Reward Mixology: Crafting Hybrid Signals for Reinforcement Learning Driven In-Context Learning

EMNLP 2025

In-context learning (ICL) performance heavily relies on the quality and ordering of demonstrations. Iterative selection (IS) is a promising approach to address this issue, but existing IS methods face two key challenges: the oversimplification of process reward signals that guide intermediate steps

Can Prompt Probe Pretrained Language Models? Understanding the Invisible Risks from a Causal View

ACL 2022long

Prompt-based probing has been widely used in evaluating the abilities of pretrained language models (PLMs). Unfortunately, recent studies have discovered such an evaluation may be inaccurate, inconsistent and unreliable. Furthermore, the lack of understanding its inner workings, combined with its wi…

Pre-training to Match for Unified Low-shot Relation Extraction

ACL 2022long

Low-shot relation extraction (RE) aims to recognize novel relations with very few or even no samples, which is critical in real scenario application. Few-shot and zero-shot RE are two representative low-shot RE tasks, which seem to be with similar target but require totally different underlying abil…

Element Intervention for Open Relation Extraction

ACL 2021long

Open relation extraction aims to cluster relation instances referring to the same underlying relation, which is a critical step for general relation extraction. Current OpenRE models are commonly trained on the datasets generated from distant supervision, which often results in instability and makes…
